March 2018

Do you have a love of reading, a business that might involve reading books or anything you want to promote? You might want to create a Goodreads book list to help highlight your services. So many blogs offer book lists, whether as random shares or targeted information for their audiences, without offering links to share the books. Some of these do link to Amazon.com but if you create a Goodreads List, your audience just might thank you.

2018 has had me in a whirl of emotion and change. Between home, health, financial issues, transportation, anxiety... I've got something going on in just about every sector.

March madness is well underway, and the contenders aren't who some people thought they'd be! We're not talking sports but books here. Many libraries, groups and even friends participate in the March Madness of reading each year, voting for favorite books against other favorites in order to determine a concrete winner.
